RLI Investors has acquired a logistics property in one of the most sought-after commercial areas near Leipzig, Germany. The purchase, in an off-market transaction, is for the open-ended special real estate AIF "RLI Logistics Fund-Germany II". Completed this year, the property provides 13,000m² of lettable logistics accommodation. It is fully let on a long lease. Situated directly on the B6 federal road between Leipzig and Halle, the asset benefits from easy access to the A9 and A14 motorways, and Leipzig-Halle airport with the DHL airfreight hub and a freight centre. The purchase price was not disclosed.
Katrin Poos, Managing Director of RLI, commented: "This property is the first we have acquired in the fast-growing Halle-Leipzig region. As well as the quality of the location, we were particularly impressed by the standard of construction of the new building. The lease to a very good covenant makes it an optimal complement to the fund portfolio that will further increase the long-term cash flow."
